You know I am sick of it.
Moan.. Moan.. Moan.. Aww he did this that is why I can not do what I want. Winge Winge Winge.
Stop it.
The only way you can take control of your life is to take responsibility. You are not in control of what happens externally but you are completely responsible for your next choice and your reaction to life’s events.
Here is an example of me following what I preach. I used to fight with my dad. We were cut from the same cloth. We bump head on discussions that turn in to blown out fights and stress. I always said he was responsible and he said the opposite.
One day after learning the lesson above I decided to take responsibility whether I initially thought it was my fault or not. By doing this I decided to keep my voice down and not fight. To do this I listened more and let him speak more of the time. I agreed with him on points and complimented him when he did not shout or structured his argument with out a stab at me personally.
By doing this I took responsibility to make a change and it worked. I am still getting better at it but it is one of the biggest tools in your arsenal.
Who do you blame?
Who do you give the power to of blame?
Is this holding you back(Don’t Lie to yourself we all do this)?
Are you a big enough person to take responsibility?
This can fix major relationship problems, It can fix business issue’s by you going the extra mile even if you did not think you should originally.
It even works with weight loss. I blamed my parents for always giving us kids to much food when we were younger. I finally took responsibility away from blaming my parents, McDonalds and my friends.
Use this tool wisely. It will change your life.
